I believe that developing a personal leader philosophy is really important. The concept of leaders and leadership is something that affects various aspects of our lives, and the definition of a “good” leadership is very subjective and up to each individual. The definition that you have of a good leader can affect your life because it will matter when you choose leaders, follow leaders and even become a leader. The most direct and literal example of this would be electing a president. You…

The development of thyroid cancer arises from mutations in either receptor tyrosine kinases or effectors involved in those pathways. In particular, papillary carcinomas generally have alterations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway (MAPK). For example, RET stands for "rearranged during transfection." RET is expressed in high amounts from the C cells in the thyroid, and the RET proto-oncogene is activated by fusion of the RET TK domain with the 5′ sequence of one of different…

He felt that he was often on "opposing sides of the table": All of these interactions shaped a great understanding of how I engaged what I perceived to be power. It gives me a fuller understanding of how to assert my own power. Even if they were in negative situations, I gleaned some sort of lesson from the…

tumors, attention deficits, and cognitive impairments. Neurofibromatosis is a neurological disease that is caused by a mutation on the gene that codes for a protein called neurofibromin. Neurofibromin maintains the job of the protein called “ras” in regulation. Ras ensures the regulation of cell division, so when a mutation occurs, the cells do not know when to stop dividing, thus causing tumors. These tumors grow underneath the skin, on the nerves, and in the brain (“Neurofibromatosis Type…

(GI) tract. To get even more specific, the study found that people who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis are far more likely to have a bacteria in their GI tract called Prevotella copri while people without RA generally do not have that bacteria. Dr. Scher also discovered that it’s not just RA that has its root…

Ancient Egyptian Pottery The ancient Egyptians were one of the first civilizations in the world to make pottery. They made these pots (as well as vases, canopic jars, etc...) out of a red-brown clay that was called Nile silt ware. Remember the pottery I am talking about was or the “civilians” of the time, not for royalty. So, it stands to reason that it would look like a regular clay pot/vase and not a glamorous gold one that was put in the tombs of the pharaohs and other royals. This pottery…
